Dear reader you can visit to VIGYAAPPANNS on this site to help us.


TET/CTET Teacher Eligibility Test English language Solved Question Paper
LANGUAGE II ENGLISH

Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the questions by selecting the most appropriate option.

1. This was one of the Old Man's pet schemes; and one about which he would brook no interference. Each child would review the events of his school week in his own words, in his own way; he was free to comment, to criticize, to agree or disagree, with any person, subject or method, as long as it was in-some way associated with the school. No one and nothing was sacred, from the Headmaster down, and the child, moreover, was safe from any form of reprisal.

2. "Look at it this way," Mr. Florian had said. "It is of advantage to both pupil and teacher. If a child wants to write about something which matters to him, he will take some pains to set it down as carefully and with as much detail as possible; that must in some way improve his
written English in terms of spelling, construction and style. Week by week we are able, through his reviews, to follow and observe his progress in such things. As for the teachers, we soon get a pretty good idea what the children think of us and whether or not we are getting close to them. It may sometimes be rather deflating to discover that a well-prepared lesson did not really excite Johnny Smith's interest, but, after all, the lesson was intended to benefit Johnny Smith, not his teacher.

1. The scheme, according to the Old Man, was useful because
(1) it was excellent feedback for the teacher, principal and school , (2) he was slightly eccentric
(3) it was meant to humiliate the teacher , (4) it was meant to give power to the teacher
Ans: (1)

2. 'Pet schemes' in line 1 refers to
(1) a student he is fond of , (2) a formula he had discovered , (3) a pet animal , (4) a method he has advocated
Ans: (4)

3. The 'Old Man' refers to
(1) a parent of the school , (2) a student of the school , (3) a teacher of the school , (4) the headmaster called Mr. Florian
Ans: (4)

4. The advantages of the scheme were many. Pick out the disadvantage from the list given below.
(1) Sometimes deflating to the teacher's ego , (2) Diagnostic and remedial for the student and the teacher
(3) Effective feedback , (4) Enhanced writing skills
Ans: (1)

5. 'Sacred' in the context of the Headmaster means
(1) that even 'he' was not above the 'scheme' he advocated for students , (2) he believed in the sacred nature of all life
(3) that he was a holy man , (4) that he was the powerful head of the school
Ans: (1)

6. 'Brook' as a verb means 'to tolerate' in para l. As a noun, it means
(1) Tolerance , (2) Allow , (3) Suffer , (4) Stream
Ans: (4)

Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the questions by selecting the most appropriate option.

1. Karuna Verma is bewildered. "I don't know how she did it," she says about her mother, Renu Chopra. Karuna's childhood memories are of her father leaving late for office so that, by then, her mother would be-back from work. Of her parents working in sync to make sure the kids were well taken care of .Of her mother handling kitchen and classroom with ease.

2. When her own daughter was born, Karuna too wanted to do the balancing act. But it did not turn out to be as easy as it seemed. For starters, her parents' era was different from hers. As she was living with her husband in Andheri, Mumbai, away from their families, resuming work would have meant leaving her daughter with a maid while she was away. Her daughter's formative years would be spent with an outsider, a thought that did not appeal to Karuna. She quit her teaching job in a school.

3. For a woman who was encouraged to be independent. throughout her life, the decision to quit and stay at home was a difficult one. Ironically it was her mother who urged her to quit the job and become a full-time mother. For Karuna, being a housewife is one of the tougher jobs she has had. "I have no time for myself," says Karuna. "I make sure all my personal work is done when Avni is asleep. Earlier I had a set routine. My husband and I used to wake up at 6 a.m. I would re-heat the food the maid had cooked the day before and pack it for lunch. Then we used to head off to work, and at night, we would go out. I had a lot of time to myself and for my husband then," says
Karuna.

4. The routine is quite different now. Karuna has taken to cooking. She wakes up quite early and makes sure all her work is done before the baby is up. The rest of the day flies by, pandering to two-year-old Avni's needs.

7. Karuna Verma is bewildered at
(1) the responsibility of bringing up a daughter in a big city , (2) her mother's ability to combine her career with household work
(3) the amount of work that she has to do after becoming a mother , (4) the late hours of work that her father followed
Ans: (2)

8. ' ... parents working in sync' means
(1) father earning and mother taking care of children , (2) parents having staggered office hours and sharing household work
(3) parents pooling their resources together to take care of expenses
(4) husband and wife sinking their differences to preserve domestic harmony
Ans: (2)

9. ' Karuna too wanted to do the balancing act.' In this sentence, the term 'balancing act' implies
(1) managing the time efficiently so that parents can spend quality time with their children
(2) making adjustments in order to balance work and leisure properly
(3) sharing of responsibilities by both husband and wife
(4) a mother's ability to look after her child without quitting her job
Ans: (1)

10. 'As she was living with her husband in Andheri, Mumbai, away from their families............ . In this
sentence 'their families' refers to
(1) Families of friends in Andheri, Mumbai , (2) Karuna's parents and in-laws

Ans: (2)

11. Karuna's parents and her husband's parents probably lived
(1) in Mumbai but not in Andheri , (2) with Karuna and her husband
(3) in Andheri, Mumbai , (4) in some other city

(1) she wanted to have more time, to herself and for her husband
(2) she wanted to pay more attention to her cooking
(3) she Was not interested in her teaching job
(4) she did not want her daughter to spend her early years with a maid
Ans: (4)

13. It was ironical that Karuna's mother should advise her to quit her job and stay at home because
(1) Karuna's parents had always advised her that home was much more important than career
(2) Karuna's mother herself had not quit her job to take care of children as she encouraged independence of women
(3) Karuna herself was keen on quitting her job
(4) Karuna's parents had insisted that household chores should be shared between husband and wife
Ans: (2)

14. After Karuna quit her job
(1) she sent her maid away as she felt that the maid was a bad influence on Avni
(2) she had no time for herself as Avni needed all her attention and care
(3) she had a lot of time to herself and for her husband
(4) she occupied herself with cooking to spend her time usefully
Ans: (2)

15. "I have no time for myself," says Karuna. This sentence can be written in reported speech as
(1) Karuna said that she had no time for herself
(2) Karuna says that she had no time for herself
(3) Karuna says that she have no time for herself
(4) Karuna said that she had no time for myself
Ans: (1)
